Working Shoe for Young Exec

[afishpie]

any seniors who own both meermins lasts and edetals oxfords willing to comment on the relative sizes? im a 38 for edetals oxfords, wondering if it translates to a Uk 5.5 for meermin lasts.

Thanks in advance

I'm a UK 9. Yes, Shoesnob reviewed the shoe and it was generally positive. The usual price is 150 quid so 50% off such shoes probably don't come easily. I don't have any Vass or Ed shoes. The last is not overly slim at the toebox area so it feels like a true to size last. A size 39.5 is about a UK 7? A pair is available in UK 7 so if you're feeling adventurous, why not? Or you can wait for me to take some pics of my shoes but note that mines only the Goodyear Welted range so there's bound to be some differences.

Bro congrats on your fantastic buy
am happy for you
a sweet deal indeed. Even more excellent considering it fits you

Got my very first suede shoe before enlisting.
First purchase from meermin and is happy with their service.
Took them 2 days after payment to get my shoe, as for defects wise, nothing serious, or rather i would say that they are not noticeable unless i looked at it really hard. Could say i am lucky with this purchase.

Do they run true to size?

Do they run true to size?

Always find that term abit of a misnomer.

What's 'true to size' for him may not be true to size for you and me.

Anyway, I think if you can share more details on what shoe brands/last/sizes u wear or have worn that fit well, those with experience may be able to suggest the appropriate size for a particular brand/last.

I emailed them regarding the feet size, and they recommended me half a size down my usual UK9. When worn, there's about half a small pinky spacing on my left while it fits nicely on my right feet. My right feet is slightly bigger than my left, so i'm satisfied with it.

Less is more.

Need alot of time to rub it in.

Use the spit and polish method. That always works for me.

Literally spit? Some enzymes that work miracles with shoe polish?

Hi,

Would like to know if anybody have ship Meermin shoes along with Saphir Products eg. cream/polish/reno?

Would like to know if there is any problem because the last time i ship saphir cream and polish using Borderlinx, it almost got rejected as it contains turpentine.

Yes and no issue so far.

Ordered Carmina punch caps from skoak last week; Simpson last so there's a 70% chance they won't fit. Ugh

I reckon u are a man of chances, pulling the trigger when there's a more than 50% chance (by your own estimation) that it wouldnt fit!
